The use of physical function capacity measures in the management of lower limb tendinopathy: A scoping review of expert recommendations
2023, Physical Therapy in SportCitation Excerpt :Importantly, the majority of the reviewed studies did not provide adequate descriptions that would allow measures to be utilised in the clinical setting due to a lack of detail about the testing procedure, equipment required for testing or normative data to formulate targets for patient populations. A number of authors with studies included in this review (Cook et al., 2000, 2001; Goom et al., 2016; Grimaldi & Fearon, 2015; Silbernagel et al., 2020), were also involved in development of the ICON consensus (Vicenzino et al., 2020), which supports the use of physical function capacity measures, suggesting that in future there should be more focus on developing these measures further. The current findings highlight that the reporting and use of physical function capacity measures by experts in the literature is limited, with exercise programs commonly relying on the report of pain to guide clinical decision making.

Effects of a strength protocol combined with electrical stimulation on patellar tendinopathy: 42 months retrospective follow-up on 6 high-level jumping athletes
2018, Physical Therapy in SportCitation Excerpt :Clinical decision-making is hindered by lack of knowledge about over-use tendinopathy, so that athletes may experience long, frustrating periods of rehabilitation with unpredictable results (Cook et al., 1997). Although different treatments have been described with promising results, a more effective protocol has yet to be found (Cook, Khan & Purdam, 2001; Rutland et al., 2010, Cook & Khan, 2001), especially in athletes with high load demands on the patellar tendon. Studies suggest that protocols should be designed on the basis of eccentric muscle strengthening exercises which show positive results in terms of the subjective perception of pain (Biernat, Trzaskoma, Trzaskoma, & Czaprowski, 2014) as well as improved functionality (Frohm, Saartok, Halvorsen, & Renstrom, 2007; Jonsson & Alfredson, 2005; Kaux, Forthomme, Goff, Crielaard, & Croisier, 2011; Kongsgaard et al., 2006; Peers & Lysens, 2005; Purdam et al., 2004a; Reinking, 2012; Romero-Rodriguez, Gual, & Tesch, 2011; Woodley, Newsham-West, & Baxter, 2007) and strength (Cook, Beaven, & Kilduff, 2013).
